Game Thread: NBA FINALS!!! SA vs MIA

[Hambombs]

I know it's premature but I remember when everyone laughed at me cause I picked the spurs to win it all

 

[TheRangerDude]

Even though I am not an NBA fan, even I can get some joy out of a Heat loss. My apologies Heat fans.

I'm here to have an actual conversation about basketball. If you want to communicate like a child you should find a different thread.

Whatever. Go ahead and tell us more about his lack of help. You're almost as bad as BK.

Says a Heat bandwagon fan.

Were gonna find out, but you'd think the Heat either lose a close game or win game 5. I can't picture another blowout Spurs wins.

Why not? Nobody saw a blowout coming tonight either. What has been the Spurs average margin of victory?

i can. that's how 3 of the 4 games turned out...

ok, i guess game 1 would've been closer if LeBron didn't cramp up...

 

[purguy12]

Come on now, if the Bulls landed LBJ and Wade you would of said fuck it to "the right way". I don't care how the Celtics become great again. I'll take LBJ/LBJ package deal in Boston tomorrow because he gives us the best chance to win another championship.

nope I wouldn't. I said like 100 times on the CBS board. I didn't want both. Yes to 1. We we signed both Noah wouldn't be on this team. Im a big Noah fan.

Certain ppl kill this thread which is why I only mainly post here during games

Where did I say that? All I've been saying tonight is that it's not over yet and all Miami needs to do is win game 5 and all the pressure would be in the spurs in game 6 because they wouldn't want a game 7 after being up 3 to 1

Here's a couple....

Yeah but they won the game in the first half by shooting 75 percent and scoring 71 points......that won't happen again.

Miami win on Thursday and make this a best of 3

I'm not worried about Miami in game 4. They'll play defense as they did in the 2nd half. I expect it to be a best of 3 series after Thursday

 

[purguy12]

I said modern NBA NOT the NBA WHERE THEY LET stars gamble on games and quietly exit into other sports where they could hide until the cost was clear.......just kidding or perhaps not. Who was MJ 's competition in his prime? Certainly, not teams like the Celtics with 3 hall of famers, the Spurs, a team like the Thunder, the 2011 Mavericks, etc....

Ok Im done with u. U just admitted to not knowing the NBA. Im not even going to discuss this with u. U must be like 12-18 years old and didn't watch the 90's. I will give u a pass. U are getting beat by a team that has no super star. TD is past his prime.


U do know the best NBA era was either the 80's or 90's.

 

[bksballer89]

I thought you meant tonight vita. I'm a heat fan so yeah I expected them to win game 4. Big deal

 

[Logicallylethal]

2011 finals was demoralizing but this one has been embarrassing. I expect this team with their championship pedigree to at least go out swinging if they lose this series.

 

[cwalke3408]

The Heat started playing for the championship in game 1 while the Spurs started playing for the championship on Day 1. Spurs bounce back from last year's lost, gain the #1 overall seed and home court, go thourgh a tough Western Conf. and now up 3-1. It's not that the Heat playing bad, its just the Spurs are making them look bad. If the Heat played like this vs any team in the East, they would be winning the series. It's getting to the point where we question if the best two teams are in the Finals because there are a lot of good teams in the west.

Whatever.....you really think Parker is not a star? Manu is a scrub and Leonard is not a great talent and Pop is not an excellent coach? No shame in losing to the Spurs. Now, losing to the Nets and a mediocre Heat team 4-1 over 2 of the last 3 years....that sucks. LOL!

in all honesty i think all the games, the world tourneys, etc FINALLY got to these guys. basketball's their bread and butter and all, but every human being is subject to burnout...

True. That and their opponent is REALLY good and motivated. Sometimes you tip your hat to the other team. Again, this is not over.

 

[Clayton]

Man, Wade was bad.

It's no big deal at all.

Like I told that other Heat fan who's jimmies were rustled, I couldn't just let you off the hook.

When we Lakers fans made our predictions during our time you never let us off the hook when they fell short.

Hell you Heat boys would come out in droves over to the Lakers boards to give us grief....

TBT - It's tough being on top, everybody wants to knock you down.

 

[OregonDucks]

Looks like its time for Miami to add one All-Star.
